Henderson's Early Market Henderson's Early Spring 



A Splendid Round-Head Cabbage. Only a Few Days Later 

 Than Early Jersey Wakefield. 



Introduced by Peter Henderson tk Co in 191 ' 

 262 This Danish production is highly praised by all who have 

 grown it. Every row and every head in the row look as 

 nearly alike as if all had been turned out of a mold. The plant is 

 small, with short stem, and few outer leaves. These have the excellent 

 habit of curving inward, thus providing protection to the head, and so 

 effectually economizing space that it may be planted twenty- 

 one inches apart 



For home use its remarkably 

 fine quality and tenderness will 

 be greatly appreciated. There 

 is an 'entire absence of coarse 

 veins and leaves, and it has the 

 quality peculiar to some of the 

 best sorts, of hardening the head 

 before it has attained its full size. 

 (See illustration.) Price, pkt. 

 15c.; oz. 70c.; M lb. $2.00; 

 lb. $7.00; transportation paid. 



Golden Acre 



New, Early Round-headed Cabbage 

 One «>f the finest Cabbages Grown. Eight 

 lo Ten Days Earlier Than Early Market. 



9gQ Golden Acre Cabbage is 

 a new early round-headed 

 variety resembling Early Market 

 in shape and type, but is smaller 

 and can be planted closer. It is 

 also, as stated above, eight to 

 ten days earlier than that well 

 known variety. In addition it 

 can be truthfully said that it will 

 remain on the field for a long tirm 

 without bursting or bolting to 

 seed Price, pkt. 20c; oz. 

 $1.00; Vt lb. $3.50: transpor- 

 tation paid

A Round, Flat-Headed, Extra-Early Variet> 



Introduced by Peter Henderson <$c (.u in 189 

 264 ^ he S reat value of Henderson's Early Spring lies in its beinp 

 a First Early FLAT Cabbage, a type much preferred over 

 pointed heads by many people. It has a short stem and only four 

 to five outside leaves, and these so small that it may be planter 

 twenty-one inches apart. It is a sure, solid header, always producing 

 a crop of large, uniform heads which seldom burst There is n< 

 Cabbage we know of having a more solid head: it has also tin 

 peculiarity of heading firmly at an early stage in its growth, so 



that the finest Cabbage, thougl 

 small, can be obtained ion? 

 before it has attained its matur; 

 size. Quality unequalled. Price 

 pkt. 10c; oz. 40c; V* lb. $1.25: 

 lb. $4.00; transportation paid

 second -early Cabbage it cor. 

 tinues to hold its place. It

 heads, weighing usually 8 to 10 

 lbs. each. The quality is ex< e 

 lent, tender and sweet It come- 

 in about ten days later thai
